【要点综述】本文主要论述现代技术的消极影响——现代技术的使用在疏远人与人之间的距离。

1.B　主旨大意题。

本文主要论述了现代技的影响。

2.C　句意理解题。

第一段作者提出：

通讯革命使我们不再面对面地交谈；第二段作者举自己生活的一例来予以说明；第三段作者感慨“Nowitmakespeoplesittingnexttoyoufeelabsent”，即其意应为：

现在技术使人们很难有面对面的交谈。

故选C项。

3.D　推理判断题。

根据第五段可知，作者并不反对现代技术，也认为它极有帮助，只是某一些结果让他感到不安，比如第二段中他所举的生活例子。

由此判断他会认为使用现代技术有时令人感到尴尬，故选D项。

4.B　推理判断题。

根据第四段可推断现代技术正在疏远人们之间的关系，故选B项。

5.A　词义猜测题。

画线词所在的这一段主要在讲述现代技术对他的消极影响，因此他才决定限制自己对现代技术的使用。

由此判断画线词应意为“加深”，即：

加重他的不爱交际的天性。

故选A项。
